This is a gold-silver mining district started about 1886. The principal gold-bearing veins strike Northward and dip steeply. They occur in granite and schistose rocks and average 4 to 6 feet wide. Some veins are traceable for more than a mile on the surface outcrops.
The Lost Basin district is situated in the most northern part of the region examined. It comprises the belt lying between Hualpai Wash on the west and Pierce Mill Canyon on the east, and extending from Colorado River at the mouth of the Grand Canyon southward through the Grand Wash Cliffs to a point 12 miles beyond Scanlon Ferry, near the latitude of Gold Basin. It has a length of 20 miles and a width of about 9 miles. It is reached by wagon road descending Hualpai Wash from Gold Basin to Colorado River at Scanlon Ferry.
The principal veins occur south of the middle of the belt, about 7 miles northeast of Gold Basin, where, between elevations of about 2,000 feet on the west and 5,000 feet on the east, they trend about east and west across the district for a distance of 6 miles.
They were discovered about 1886, and considerable ore has been taken out from time to time and treated in arrastres or milled, but the ground on the whole is but little more than prospected. This is probably due to the lack of water. The nearest water supply is Colorado River at Scanlon Ferry, 8 miles to the north, whence water is now hauled at a cost of $2 a barrel. The two points, however, could be readily connected by pipe line.
The ore could without difficulty be hauled to the river, with which the area is said to be connected by a good wagon road, but its transportation by water down the river, advocated by some, does not seem feasible, owing to the dangerous rapids that would be encountered and the impracticability of bringing barges or bottoms of any kind up the river and the great cost of bringing them overland.
The deposits are mostly owned by about half a dozen men. They occur mainly in the pre Cambrian granitic rocks in well-defined, strong quartz fissure veins, of which there are two sets. Those on the west strike northward with dips vertical or steep to the east and are chiefly gold bearing; those on the east strike west-northwest and are chiefly copper bearing. The relative age of the two sets of veins has not been determined., but it is possible that the copper deposits may be in part pre-Cambrian.
The principal gold properties are known as the Scanlon-Childers mines and are owned chiefly by Mike Scanlon, of Basin, and Cy Childers, of Kingman. The veins average from 4 to 6 feet in width. Several of them are reported to be from 10 to 14 feet in width and from 1 to 2 miles in length. The croppings are principally brown and green iron and copper-stained quartz and are in part prominent. Some of the veins are said to be exposed in the canyons to a depth of 200 feet or more and yield good shipping ore from the surface down to this depth. The ore contains principally gold and silver and a little copper, but no copper of commercial value and not enough to interfere with cyaniding.
The ore on the whole is fine in texture. It has been sampled and tested by Denver men and was found to be excellent cyaniding ore, and is reported to contain on the average $8 or upward in gold to the ton.
The copper deposits are said to extend from a point near the middle of the belt nearly to the summit of the Grand Wash Cliffs and Colorado Plateau on the east. They are owned chiefly by James Burrows and J. W. Mouat, of White Hills. Other owners are Messrs. Grant, Fielding, and Roseborough, of Hackberry. The pre-Cambrian complex is here more schistose than on the gold-bearing side of the belt, and s.ome of the deposits on the extreme east are said to be associated with limestone. The copper-bearing veins, as indicated, strike westnorthwest at nearly right angles to the gold-bearing veins. The croppings are large, and, as seen by the writer, consist principally of oxidized masses of brown and black quartz, with some malachite and azurite. The ore contains principally copper and carries also some gold and silver. Some of it is reported to have assayed from 17 to 20 per cent of copper.
The production of the district is reported to be many thousand dollars, chiefly in gold.
